Nomader
2023
Nomader is an ongoing photographic series concerned with the sense of rootlessness and a lack of belonging. Having experienced a peculiar nomadic upbringing, artist duo Red Rubber Road use self-portraiture to explore the feeling of alienation by temporarily adapting and integrating into new spaces in landscapes all around the world - while never quite fitting in. The seemingly passive engagement of the human body with the raw natural environment is the artists' way of dealing with the question: can nature itself in its borderless essence be the only thing to give a sense of belonging to those who struggle to find a place to call home?
